Fall In For the Hodge Podge

1. What's something you'd rate a 10/10? Tell us why.My marriage....we've been married 50 years and it just keeps getting better...

2. What job would you be terrible at? What makes you think so?Telephone Solicitation....I simply hate talking on the phone...so thankful for texts and voice mail

3. When did you last take a fall? What's something you're falling for (in a good way) these days?a couple of weeks ago: I was squatting down to get Smokey's mouse from under a chair and when I started to stand up my feet started sliding and I teetered...ended up hitting my elbow on the floor and my head on the door facing..............What's something you're falling for (in a good way) these days?.Oh if only it wasn't food....

4. According to the Travel Channel here are some of America's best fall festivals-National Apple Harvest Festival (near Arendtsville PA, close to Gettysburg), Harvest on the Harbor (Portland Maine), German Village Festival (Columbus Ohio), Wellfleet Oyster Fest (Cape Cod), and Wine and Chile Fiesta (Santa Fe NM)
Have you ever been to any of the festivals listed? noWhich one appeals to
you most? The apple festival and the wine and chili Does your hometown have any sort of fall celebration, and if
so will you make it a point to attend? Yes, we have a street festival on the first Saturday in October.....my women's club sales pizza and drinks, coffee and doughnuts...it is our fund raiser and the proceeds go to charities of our choice....this year I cannot work because I'll be on a tour of New England....my hometown has a harvest festival and I like to try to go about every other year.

5. What is your goodbye message to summer? Hurry up and leave already...

6. Insert your own random thought here.We had some cooler days but today it was 91 and way too hot to go outside and sit on the porch.A big shout out to Joyce for continuing to come up with great Hodge Podge..

I feel the exact same way about telephone solicitation. I don't like talking on the phone plus I hate trying to sell things to people. We had some lovely cool days but it is hot again here, too. Hope you didn't hurt yourself in the fall! Our area seems to have festivals going on pretty frequently but I don't know if there is one specifically for fall.

About Me

Hello and welcome to my place where I journal about the past and the present.
I am a child of the King. That makes me a princess.
I have been married to my Honey Bear for almost 50 years now. I am the mother of 2 children, the grandmother of 5 and great grandmother to Matthew, born March of 2016.
My hobbies are reading, scrap-booking, jewelry making, quilting, cross stitch and crochet. I love nature: feeding the birds, long walks with my man, and of course, taking pictures.
I collect Bears, Circle of Friends, and Willow Tree. Smokey is my 11 year old cat. I sometimes call him Smokey Bear. Blogging has brought me so much joy.
I love the color red, enjoy a good cup of tea or a latte.

Some Favorite Bible Verses

Isaiah 41:31

But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk and not faint.

Philippians 4:6,7

Don't worry about anything; instead pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done. Then you will experience God's peace, which exceeds anything we can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus.
